Why Lionheart K9?
Dog training that works, for every dog. Even yours!
We are committed to your success
Linda has always been able to create customized training programs designed around each dog’s differences and needs. Her goal is to help owners learn how to successfully read and respond to their dog’s behavior, which results in a relationship built on trust and understanding. Stop feeling anxious over your dog’s behavior and feel the freedom of having a well-trained companion you are proud of.
Let's start with 50 years of experience
My specialty is my desire to help owners create happy, willing companions that are a pleasure to own. Using proven concepts to change their dogs’ behavior humanely and permanently, I enable owners to really enjoy their dogs, including them in activities other people can only dream about, easily, and without conflict!
I am constantly seeking to improve my training skills by attending seminars offered by highly regarded personalities in a variety of challenging disciplines to stay current with the successful training strategies of others and expand my knowledge. I continue to explore new developments in animal behavior and constantly seek opportunities to learn more about dogs, their behavior, and how best to teach them.
I am an endorsed member of the National Association of Dog Obedience Instructors, the oldest organization of its kind in the world. Membership in this organization isn’t assured, as each applicant is examined through a rigorous process that truly measures one’s competence with training dogs, and their ability to instruct others effectively.
Are you dealing with…
Undesirable Behavior?
Are you discouraged by your dog’s undesirable behaviors? Are they interfering with your quality of life? I can help you learn what triggers that behavior and how to respond to it without conflict. Whether your dog is guarding its food bowl or menacing the mailman, I can design a program around your specific goals.
Frustration or Anger?
Living with a dog should be a pleasant experience and not a troublesome chore. If you are constantly being irritated by your dog’s annoying barking, lunging, whining, or jumping; my practical, no BS approach will transform your dog’s behavior.
Not Knowing Where To Start?
Having failed to get the results you were after using other trainers without success can lead to anger and frustration. When you are ready for results that work for both you and your dog, I can help. If you are looking for practical puppy training, or taming that teenage hellion, I have solutions that work.
Custom training solutions designed for your dog and your goals
Since every dog is different, we can create programs to suit your dog’s emotional and mental needs. A scared dog is going to train much differently than a bold, confident dog of any age or breed. Knowing the individual breed differences and behaviors that are influenced by age and early influences sets Lionheart K9’s programs apart from other trainers, based on over 40 years of experience, practice and study.
